Abstract	Women of Arunachal Pradesh have been striving towards gender equality and women's empowerment for many decades, trying to uplift the socio-economic condition of women and the society in general. It is a dedicated movement aimed at defining, establishing, and defending women’s equal political, economic, and social rights and opportunities. However, the movement for gender equality and empowerment in the state has been fraught with challenges right from the start. Therefore, the paper seeks to investigate the history of women’s movement towards gender equality and women empowerment in Arunachal Pradesh with reference to two prominent women’s organizations in the state: The Arunachal Pradesh Women’s Welfare Society (APWWS) and The Arunachal Pradesh State Commission for Women (APSCW) and assess its role, issues, concerns and challenges. Both primary and secondary sources would be the basis for the analysis of data. As a native of the state, the researcher would use observation and experience to validate the information and confirm the reliability of the data.
